The only five-digit contribution in New York came from Laura Ross, a longtime Democratic donor, who gave $10,000.

Lawrence Fraser, a consultant at an executive search firm, gave $1,000, and Edward Hotchkiss, the mayor of the Village of Pelham, gave $500.

Mitt Romney's super PAC, Restore Our Future, did substantially better in the state, with a $40,000 donation from Marc Goldman, a private investor in Garden City, and $25,000 from United Refining on 11th Avenue.

It also collected $10,000 from an attorney in Scarsdale and $5,000 from an investor in New York City. (There was also a $10 donation from an "academician" in Niagara Falls.)
